â€œ[Wedgeâ€™s] encouragement to look anew at the â€˜problemsâ€™ our children have . . . ?is valuable and expert advice.â€â€•Booklist
Where can parents turn when their child exhibits disturbing behavior and they want to avoid psychiatric labels and drugs? Pills Are Not for Preschoolers presents a much-needed alternative: child-focused family therapyâ€•a brief, effective approach that involves family members in the childâ€™s therapy. A family therapist for more than twenty years, Marilyn Wedge treats childrenâ€™s problems not as biologically determined â€œdisordersâ€ but as responses to relationships in their lives that can be altered with the help of a therapist. Parents can now respond to symptoms of ADHD, depression, and anxiety with respectful family prescriptives, not prescriptionsâ€•and Wedge brilliantly shows us how easy it can be to understand and implement her pathbreaking approach.
